Back to School Outfits

These are my back to school outfits that I would actually wear. I'm not a frilly kind of girl, so these are perfect for me. I created these with Polyvore and I don't have most of these exact things- just things that look incredibly similar, which is actually kind of creepy. I've already decided my back to school outfit and I'll do a more in-depth Polyvore on it, although it's just included in my first Polyvore set.

I also have some hairstyles that I would think would look really good with each outfit, although most you can wear with whatever hairstyle and it'll still look absolutely adorable.

Back to School Outfits

1. Plaid: My ideal plaid shirt would be in red, because it's a passionate colour. Button it up all the way up and dress it down with a pair of denim shorts. Flip-flops will make it slightly too casual, so pair it with a pair of pretty graphic flats that are super cute. If you're uncomfortable with shorts, go with a pair of boyfriend capris.

Curl your hair and make a side ponytail, with a few curly tendrils framing your face.

2. Band Tee: Wear a grey or white tank top underneath a band tee. Choose a band tee that is slightly cropped, because the tank top will give it a super cute look. Pair it with a pair of distressed skinny jeans, but if that's too edgy for you, go with a pair of faded blue skinny jeans. Pair with flip-flops or a pair of Converse. I would wear something like the shoe above.

Spritz your hair with Aussie Sprunch Catch the Wave Hairspray and scrunch for a casual carefree look.

3. Back to School: Yes, this is my back to school outfit. It looks super simple, but I thought the distressed skinny jeans would give it a cooler vibe. I'll do a more in-depth Polyvore later, so I'll talk more about then.

Back to School


1. Sweatshirt: I wear a cute sweatshirt with a pair of faded skinny jeans and then some flip-flops to make it even more casual than it already is, lol. This would be a great Friday outfit, especially if you're hanging out with friends after. After all, who wants to look all dolled up for some awesome time with your best friends? Unless you go over to a friend's house and you need to impress her brother, which would never happen... for me, anyways. I was contemplating a pair of slouchy capris, put it on the set, and damn, did it look lazy. I would only wear that on a day I was running late.

2. Striped: Yeah, you can totally tell I'm putting a lot of thought into these names for the outfit, right? Sweatshirt, Striped, Plaid, I'm practically a poet, lol. I would wear a striped green shirt under a cute military jacket or whatever jacket that looks similar. I have this really cute jacket that looks like a military jacket, although it's much thicker (making it perfect for winter) and it has a really fluffy inside which is SOOO soft. I paired with a pair of distressed skinny jeans to give it an edgier look that isn't usually paired with a military jacket, giving it a more unique look.

3. School Hoodie: So, yeah, really similar to the first outfit. I have a hoodie from a junior high I don't go to (and I'm not lying- my sister's boyfriend gave it to me) and a University of Paris sweatshirt my dad bought for me. One is really big, one's kind of small, hmm... xD I like the University of Paris one better, so I would either pair this with another pair of faded skinny jeans or a pair of faded distressed skinny jeans. Bunching up the sleeves will prevent it from looking too small (since my sleeves are now 3/4) and then just wear a pair of pretty blue Converse sneakers that I own that look exactly like that. Seriously, it's like a walking American flag. Except I'm not American.


Back to School

1. Lazy: Again, another perfect Friday outfit. You could either look super athletic in this or just look casual and lazy. Take your pick. So, as always, pair this with a pair of flip-flops, because can you imagine wearing some pretty ballet flats with this look? That would just look plain weird. Wear a fitted t-shirt to prevent you look from looking too oversized. If you're going to wear big bottoms that don't hug your butt or legs, wear something tight on top. Then, you get a perfect balance.

2. Sweater: Dude, I'm on my way to a Nobel Naming Prize, yo. I'm so cool. Wear a striped tank underneath a v-neck sweater. The v-neck sweater I own almost looks like a bubble dress on me and it would look super cute (but short) if I actually wore dresses. I would just roll up my sleeves to give it a more casual look (because it's a little bit too dressy for me) and I paired with just some normal jeans- not skinny or anything. Then, a pair of sneakers that are like my everyday shoes I wear.

3. V-Neck Graphic: Okay, so I'm not that superficial to have a graphic tee completely dedicated to boys. Instead, this is dedicated to love and it just says Love Runs Deep. This is one of my favorite v-necks, because it's so long, so you can just scrunch it up. It'd look really cute with some distressed capris (just roll up some jeans) or distressed skinnies, whatever you feel like that day or depending on the weather. I would, again, pair it with a pair of flip-flops although if you were wearing them with the skinnies, I would go with some flats.

So those are all the sets I have the energy to do right now, so this should be super helpful when I'm actually going back to school.
